View Full Version : July 5th run?
wileec 07-01-2008, 05:59 PM If I can get my dust storm fixed, anyone up for MSV (http://www.traildamage.com/trails/index.php?id=18and)and Coney Flats (http://www.traildamage.com/trails/index.php?id=15). Both very stockable trails. and not far from North Denver/Boulder- Simlar in distance as Left Hand Carnage.
Mark might you have time tomorrow (Wednesday) after work to assist in figuring this out?
96blkbeauty 07-01-2008, 06:03 PM Going to be out of town on the 5th. But take lots of pics! Those water crossings on Coney Flats look fun
wileec 07-01-2008, 06:59 PM It is. The rest of the trail is pretty mellow. At least that is how I remember it.
Larston 07-01-2008, 11:52 PM The cutoff trail between MSV and Coney Flats has a pretty rough section about midway. A pretty stock vehicle should get through with good spotting. It's a bunch of rocks big enough to grab axle tubes, maybe a rocker panel.
wileec 07-02-2008, 01:09 AM It will be my 4th or 5th trip mostly with stock heeps. I do not think it is any worse than Bill Moore.
Shadofax 07-02-2008, 01:37 PM Wow, both those trails look very cool. People keep coming up with new trails right in our backyard. Very cool how many trails are within 1 hours drive or less of the north Denver/Boulder area.
Timing wise though, I can't make a trip on the 5th...gotta wait until sometime when its good for everyone near month end, but these trails are definitely of interest to do.
I am free after work today Matt. You wanna wander over about 4? I started at 6:30 this AM so will be done by 3:30. I saw your post about this issue and chimed in a little as well.
wileec 07-02-2008, 02:14 PM Sounds good I need to stop at my parents house to water some plants. Should make it around 4

Check out Eldora / Caribou. Very scenic, and one very hair raising obstacle. It's in the Wells book.

My mostly stock Heep didn't like it at all :cry

New Stock Heeps are betterrer than OLD stock Heeps.:chili::toothless:histerica:goodfinge
Thanks for trying to get us out, but I plan on sleeping-in and hitting the beach. I may go play at Boulder Carnage early on the 4th or 6th.

So you guys that have been in Colorado awhile...the trip regularity is getting better aren't they? I mean, this year alone at least for the norther group this was the 2nd run this year with any decent attendence, and a third is in the works, with the year only half over. Plus we had Bill Moore late last year. And I know those further south had at least 1 run.

wileec 07-04-2008, 11:04 AM I here the money issues. will have to wait for a different weekend. I wanted to kkep it close for us northern people to save some of the gas. But I think with a day of wheeling the spring creek trip likly drank 60-70 in gas.

I was actually surprised when I arrived back in Erie and still had over 1/2tank. I'd guess I used about $54 for the day.
wileec 07-04-2008, 01:03 PM Have not filled it yet And I promessed myself I would fill only the top have this summer.
